‘The Zhou family lived on the outskirts of the village, in an extremely large house. It had two levels and each level had an area of nearly 200 square meters. There was also an extremely large courtyard.

In these times, some houses in the village were extremely large. Almost every house had a courtyard, and the Zhou house was no exception.

But in the village, only the Zhou family lived in such a grand house. It was very conspicuous, even from afar.

Although other houses were dilapidated, they were decorated with red couplets. Children played in the yard while the adults sat on the porch and chatted. There was a carefree atmosphere because it was the New Year.

But in the Zhou house, it was lifeless. There was not a speck of festive atmosphere.

‘There were no couplets in the house, and they could not see any preparations for the New Year. No children were playing in front of the house. The door was tightly shut!

As Zhou Ping stood there, tears flowed down her cheeks.

Gu Jinxuan and Zhou Ping were so nicely dressed that everyone could tell at a glance that they were not ordinary villagers. Everyone came over out of curiosity.

The old people in the village immediately recognized Zhou Ping.

“Hey! Isn’t that the Zhou family’s fourth daughter? Is she back to celebrate the New Year?”

‘The shout drew an even bigger crowd.

“It really is Fourth Daughter! How many years has it been since you were back? Are you back to see your mother?”

“This must be your son? Wow, the boy is so handsome!”

“Your family is in big trouble. You had better hurry inside and see!”

“Tsk, tsk! Serves you right! You used to be so proud. Now, look at how you’ve fallen!”

“Shut up!”

The villagers all knew that Zhou Ping had married well. Her husband’s family was very powerful, and no one dared to offend them.

Although many people were secretly delighted that the Zhou family had fallen, they did not dare to say too much in front of Zhou Ping and her son.

But those who were impatient could not help but jeer quietly.

‘When Zhou Ping saw them, she wanted to hide. She did not want to see these people at all.

Gu Jinxuan suddenly said, “Sirs, Madams, Aunties, how do you do? My mother has divorced my father. I’m bringing my mother home, and it just happens that it’s the New Year. In the future, my mother will be returning to live in the village. I hope you will take care of her.”

Zhou Ping wanted to die of shame. She wished she could find a crack and curl up in it.

Gu Jinxuan simply trod his way through the stunned crowd and went to knock on the door.

Although the door was closed, it was not locked. It opened when Gu Jinxuan knocked on it.

When Zhou Ping saw that, she rushed into the courtyard and slammed the door shut.

‘There was no one in the front yard. The main door was open. Gu Jinxuan carried the luggage and followed Zhou Ping in. The living room was very large, but very messy and covered with dust. It was clear that no one had cleaned it for a long time.

Gu Jinxuan put down the luggage and headed for the backyard.

“Grandmother, Aunt, are you home?”

‘When he went out of the back door, he saw a well-dressed old lady sitting in the yard. She was wearing new clothes, including a bright red quilted jacket. She looked extremely well off. Almost none of the old people in the villages at this time could afford to dress like that.

But her eyes were deeply sunken in, and her face was covered with wrinkles. Her hair was white, and she looked extremely mean. But at the moment, she also looked very worn out. Her eyes were lifeless, and she looked a little scary.

Next to her was a middle-aged woman who was cleaning vegetables. That was Gu Jinxuan’s oldest aunt.

Gu Jinxuan glanced at them, but before they could react, he simply said, “Grandmother, Oldest Aunt, my mother lent you money and released Oldest Uncle on her own accord. The matter has come to light, and it almost brought trouble on us children. The Gu family has driven her out.

“She and my father are divorced. I’m bringing her back to the Zhou house now. In the future, she has nothing to do with the Gu family. Please go about your business! I’m leaving now.”

With that, Gu Jinxuan turned to leave.

Don’t blame him for being harsh.. At this moment, he must be harsh!
